Today Was When I Realized Just How Bad My Obsession With Space Is. Only One Of The Books Is For A Class

W’Kabi: “You would kill me my love?”

Okoye:

Black women with afros

Black women with dread locks

Black women with dyed hair

Black women with natural hair

Black women with relaxed hair

Black women with weaves

Black women with hair

Black women without hair

Black women

You go home and invent a story about me, and now you can’t separate me from the person you’ve imagined me to be. You call that, I suppose, being in love; as a matter of fact it’s being in delusion.

me: *meets jj abrams*

me: *hugs jj abrams*

me: that's for star wars

me: *punches jj abrams in the throat*

me: that's for star trek

For the record, every study method has the potential to be a poor study method. Remember to engage in the material before you and ask yourself if you really understand those notes you rewrote or those flashcards you made. If the answer is yes, then carry on. But, if the answer is no, you may want to reconsider how you revise…

How is the Ravenclaw movie NOT The Martian?!

All the houses as a movie please :)

As a student of color in STEM, that scene perfectly describes what I think about everyday. Here’s a quick list of everything that I am doing:

I have a 3.71 GPA

I volunteer 10+ hours every week

I am a part-time researcher on campus (at some point I’ll make a post about my research)

I am helping to develop a CubeSat as a part of an team of undergraduate students

and I am developing my own educational outreach student organization to bring more students of color into STEM

and you know what?

I probably still won’t get as far as rich, white students who haven’t worked nearly as hard as I have. I grew up just above the poverty line, so I don’t have the connections that those students have, it sets me apart, and it sets me behind.

The students who have those connections were able to get internships and research positions in high school, without even trying. Meanwhile, I got my first research position half of the way through my second year of college because I worked my ass off during my first year and the first half of this school year. My story is in no way unique. This is the experience of thousands of students of color around the country. We have to work so hard to get half as far as our white counterparts, and it’s just bullshit.
